AutoCAD Inventor :: Drawing View Aligned To Part Face
Nov 7, 2013I frequently use the "Make Components" feature in order to derive assembly parts from solid bodies in a single master part file. Then I can quickly align the parts in the assembly with the "Ground and Root Component" utility. However, when the part is placed at an angle, the derived part becomes misaligned in the viewports of my idw files after the part gets rotated to a new angle. Then I have to manually reset the rotation by editing each viewport and selecting "View Face." If the angle has changed only slightly, sometimes I won't notice the difference, and I'll forget to re-align my viewports. Is there some way to automatically keep a viewport aligned with an specific face on a part?
If that's not possible, I guess the simplest method would be to place each part into its own assembly and constrain it to the global UCS, but I don't want to have to do that for every angled part in my assembly.
I also considered drawing only sketch blocks in my master file for the angled components, and deriving the sketch blocks to create parts that are properly aligned with the origin planes in their respective ipt files, but with that method I'd end up with a more complex master file with lots of exported parameters and extra working geometry, and I'd have to constrain these parts manually instead of using "Ground and Root Component."

AutoCAD 2013 :: Cloud Point With Aligned View?
Jan 10, 2013I have a problem with the management of the cloud of points with autocad 2013. and precisely:
- What is my need: using orthogonal views create section planes of small portions of a cloud to be scanned.
- What is my problem: When I align a view, the bounding box is not aligned to the same, so this involves a wrong cut plane to create the section

View 1 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD Inventor :: Keep Drawing View Aligned To Workplane?
Jul 31, 2012I have some models which are based on skeleton modeling and where the actual parts are modeled at the position where they are in the assembly. When the skeleton part is changed the parts will update and their orientation related to the origin planes can change. This is where the problem lies, on the drawings of these parts the views are all skewed after an update.
Is it somehow possible to tell Inventor that all views on a a drawing should stay alligned to a workplane? Because it are all parts and no assemblies I cannot use posreps (and I don't want to use dummy assemblies). I also tried setting a specific edge to be horizontal with the rotate command in the drawing. This works for the base view, but all projected views will still be skewed after an update.

3ds Max Modeling :: Creating A Face From Vertices And Edges?
Jan 1, 2012Is there a way to do this? After perusing some threads on creating edges from vertices, the "Create" tool under "Edit Geometry" doesn't seem to solve my issue. In Blender, you can create a face by selecting at least three vertices and pressing "F". Is there anything similar to that feature in 3DS Max?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: 2013 / Changing TOP View To TOP-Front View For 2 Overlapped Points
Sep 23, 2013I created 8 points (4 locations with 2 depths in each location) in the DWG of my AutoCAD Civil 3D 2013 project. I grouped these 8 points into 2 Point Groups: Point Group 1-high depth has Points #1, #3, #5, #7, and Point Group 2-low depth has #2, #4, #6, #8. I changed the 2D Wireframe to 3D Wireframe and on TOP view I saw Point Group 1 is on the top of Point Group 2 (because the 2 Point Groups have the same values of X- and Y-coordinates with different Z(elevation) value - see the first attached file. How can I change the TOP view to the TOP-FRONT view by using some Command to get this fixed TOP-Front view thar has the good separation of the 2 depths as shown in the second attached file?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Merging Circular Face To Flat Face
Aug 22, 2012All I need to do is merge a circular face to a flat face, so both faces become one continuous face. Is this possible at all?
I have a attached a screenshot to show what I mean. Face 1 needs to be merged with face 2. This is so if I constrain anything to that face it will constrain to the entire face and not either the circular face OR the flat face.
